HE  ALBUM  MARIANI  as  issued  in  Paris,  France,  is  a  compilation  of 
"Portraits  Contemporains,"  etched  by  that  celebrated  master,  Adolphe 
Lalauze,  with  interesting  autographs  and  biographies.  This  Album  appears 
at  stated  intervals,  each  of  the  series  containing  from  twenty-five  to  thirty-five 
portraits,  and  with  those  already  published  and  in  preparation,  there  are 
upwards  of  600  persons  of  note  and  distinction  in  the  world  of  Authors, 
Composers,  Physicians,  Lawyers,  Bankers,  Churchmen,  Academicians,  Sculptors, 
Painters,  Lyric  and  Dramatic  Artists,  Army  and  Navy  Officers,  Statesmen,  Journalists 
and  Poets,  all,  most  distinguished  men  and  women  of  the  present  time,  who  have,  as 
if  by  mutual  collaboration,  extended  to  Monsieur  Mariani  appropriate  words  of 
praise  for  the  services  rendered  by  him  to  each  individually — for  the  beneficial 
results  obtained  by  them  from  the  use  of  that  world-famed  "  tonic  par  excellence," 
•'  Vin  riariani.*' 

Aforesaid  Album  is  published  in  an  "  Edition  de  Luxe,"  regardless  of  all 
expense,  and  is  offered  by  Mons.  Mariani  as  a  compliment  to  his  many  friends  and 
admirers  ;  the  demand  for  the  Album  was  so  greaj  that  the  entire  edition  is  exhausted. 
At  the  earnest  request  of  many  of  our  friends,  we  have  decided  to  publish  some 
of  the  portraits  appearing  in  the  Album  Mariani,  giving  translations  of  the  autographs, 
and  have  added  a  few  of  the  popular  American  favorites  among  the  lyric  and 
dramatic  artists  whose  praises  of  '•  Vin  Hariani  "  coincide  with  those  extended  by 
our  European  friends.  While  our  main  object  in  view  is  to  more  fully  popularize 
among  an  appreciative  public  a  beverage  worthy  and  efficient,  and  at  the  same  time 
agreeable,  strengthening  to  the  system,  the  body  and  brain,  we  trust  sincerely  our 
compilation  may  be  enjoyable  to  many  and  interesting  to  all. 

With  thanks  to  our  many  patrons,  we  recommend  "Vin  ilariani "  to  all 
who  are  not  yet  familiar  with  it,  strictly  on  its  own  merits,  and  instead  of  lauding 
its  virtues  ourselves,  we  refer  with  pleasure  to  the  following  lines,  which  are  but  an 
echo  from   the    many  thousands  of  Europeans  and  Americans  who  sing  our  praise.

THE  COCA  PLANT. 

(Not  Cocoa  or  Cacao.) 

N  aiming  to  secure  the  physiological  effects  of  this  drug 
in  reference  to  its  tonic  action,  the  develooment  of  its 
stimulating  properties  is  most  sought.  Except  iu  such 
cases  where  wine  is  absolutely  objectionable,  by  far 
the  most  effective  form  of  administering  Coca  is  the  vinous  one, 
whereby  the  active  and  resinous  principles  of  the  leaf  are  held  in 
solution.  Aside  from  the  special  ability  and  care,  the  outcome  of  many 
years'  exclusive  devotion  on  the  part  of  M.  Mariani  to  the  manufac- 
ture of  Coca  preparations,  he  employs  none  but  leaves  fresh  and 
selected,  containing  their  entire  volatile  principles ;  and  too  much  stress 
cannot  be  laid  on  the  advantage  of  his  using  invariably  a  pure,  fine 
quality  of  grape,  of  his  own  production.  This  wine  (containing  tannic 
acid  and  traces  of  iron)  blends  admirably  with  the  Coca,  and  being 
readily  diffusible,  forms  with  this  drug  an  unequaled  tonic  ;  its  action 
extends  to  the  entire  economj^,  its  agreeable  taste  renders  it  always 
acceptable,  even  to  the  most  sensitive  stomach.  It  is  diffused  through- 
out the  entire  system,  gives  tone  and  renewed  vitality,  without  depress- 
ing reaction  ;  it  can  be  taken  indefinitely  without  producing  constipa- 
tion, and  this  cannot  be  said  of  other  tonics. 

The  Paris  Academy  of  Sciences  and  Medicine,  under  the  super- 
intendence of  the  well-known  Professor  Beclard,  thoroughly  tested  all 
Coca  preparations,  and  the  Academy  and  its  members  use  exclusively 
Mariani's  preparations  of  Coca  for  their  physiological  and  therapeutical 
experiments,  and  have  given  to  the  Wine  of  Coca  his  name,  it  being 
known  to  the  medical  profession  as  "  VIN  HARIANI,"  which  he  considers 
as  the  highest  honor  that  could  be  awarded  him. 


BRANCH  OF  COCA  (Natural  Size). 

PLANTED    AND    RAISED   BV    MR.    A.    MARIANI,    PARIS. 


As  per  the  numerous  published  articles  in  the  medical  journals 
throughout  Europe  and  in  the  United  States,  and  the  written  opinions 
in  our  possession  of  over  seven  thousand  physicians,  the  most  brilliant 
results  were  obtained  with  Mariani's  Coca  preparations  and  can  be 
thus  summarized : 

"  Diffusible  tonic  stimulant  in  aneemia,  nervous  depression,  tardy  con- 
valescence and  general  'flalaise,'  brain  exhaustion,  malarial  and  wasting 
fevers,  influenza  (la  grippe)  and  its  complications." 

"  Stimulant,  with  special  reference  to  the  nervous  system,  in  all  those 
morbid  states  in  which  there  are  much  depression  and  atony." 

"Tonic  in  laryngeal  and  gastric  complications,  stomach  and  intestinal 
troubles." 

"  Strengthener  of  the  entire  system,  with  beneficial  action  on  the 
respiratory  and  digestive  organs." 

"Topically,  in  convulsive  cough,  laryngitis,  stomatitis,  etc." 

The  demand  for  "  VIN  flARlANl "  is  steadily  increasing  from  year 
to  year,  notwithstanding  the  substitutions  and  imitations  with  which 
the  market  has  been  flooded.  We  cannot  aim  to  gain  support  through 
the  cheapness  of  our  preparation.  It  is  our  constant  endeavor  to  give 
a  uniformly  reliable,  effective  and  honest  article,  and  we  respectfully 
ask  personal  testing,  strictly  on  its  own  merits,  thus  enabling  all  to 
judge  whether  "VIN  HARIANI,"  which  has  stood  continued  therapeutic 
tests  by  the  medical  profession  throughout  Europe  and  America  for 
thirty  years,  is  deserving  of  its  high  repute  and  esteem.  While  the 
many  imitations,  so-called  Coca  Wines,  bring  into  discredit,  and  destroy 
confidence  in,  a  valuable  drug,  they  in  the  end  come  to  be  very  expen- 
sive when  proven  to  be  without  efl&cacy. 

That  many  have  imitated  Mariani's  Wine,  can  be  considered  a 
compliment  to  Mr.  Mariani,  as  his  was  the  original  Wine  of  Coca,  and 
by  the  medical  profession  is  recommended  as  the  standard  preparation. 

We  therefore  particularly  caution  to  insist  on  obtaining  "  VIN 
riARIANI."

HE  Mariani  Tonic  Wine  is  a  rare  combination  of  fascinating  flavor, 
invigorating  energy  and  temperate  stimulus.  While  I  have  it 
in  the  house,  I  find  that  I  require  no  quinine,  no  iron,  no  throat

Thanks,  my  dear  Doctor,  for  ordering  me  to  take  the  "  Vin

the  best  tonic  in  the  world.  I  say  it,  and  say  it  boldly,  "  that  '  Vin

Acting  on  the  advice  of  Sir  Morell  Mackenzie,  I  tried  "  Vin 
riariani  "  some  years  ago.  I  found  so  much  benefit  from  its 
use  I  take  it  now  whenever  over-fatigued,  and  find  it  always 
an  admirable  tonic  for  the  voice.

"Vin  riariani  "  is  the  greatest  of  all  tonic  stimulants  for  the  voice 
and  system.     During  my  professional  career,  I  have  never  been  without  it.

I  have  great  pleasure  in  testifying  to  the  merits  of  the  *'Vin

possible  results,  both  physically  and  vocally.

TAKE  great  pleasure  in  recoiumending  to  all,  particularly  to 

singers,   the   "  Vin  flariani "    as  a  most   delightful   tonic 

for  the  throat  and  vocal  organs. 

It    was    first    brought  to   my  notice,  some    years    ago, 

through  my  throat  doctors  (Fauvel,  of  Paris,  and  Mackenzie,  of  London), 

and  I  have  used  it  constantly  since.     Am  never  without  it,  at  home  or 

traveling.

I  have  used  your  "  Vin  flariani  "  for  some  years,  both  in  England

strength  so  necessary  in  the  performance  of  the  arduous  duties  which  I  have 
imposed  upon  myself.  I  never  fail  to  praise  its  virtues  to  all  my  friends,  and

ERTAINLY,  I  can  testify  to  the  excellent  effects  of  the  "  Vin 
Hariani."  Having  been  for  months  troubled  with  nervous 
prostration,  I  was  delighted  to  find  the  wine  a  most  strength- 
ening tonic.  I  can  recommend  it  heartily  to  all  who  are  called 
upon  to  endure  the  fatigues  of  public  life. 

Henrietta  Beebe. 


At  the  special  recommendation  of  Dr.  Lennox  Browne,  of  London, 
I  have  tested  carefully  the  "  Vin  Hariani, "  and  I  recognize  that  its 
splendid  eflfect  upon  the  voice  is  extremely  satisfactory,  and  almost 
instantaneous.  For  over  two  years  I  have  tried  it,  ordering  it  to  my 
pupils,  both  ladies  and  gentlemen,  whom  I  had  under  my  care  for  the 
development  of  the  voice,  and  I  have  invariably  remarked  that  when- 
ever they  had  any  difl&culty  in  singing  or  elocution,  the  "  VIn  Hariani" 
enabled  them  to  continue  the  lesson,  which,  without  it,  would  have  been 
utterly  impossible.  I  have  thus  every  reason  to  be  glad  that  my 
attention  was  called  to  this  wonderful  preparation,  and  am  convinced 
that  all  artists  and  orators  will  welcome  it  and  be  happy  to  adopt  it.

•JHE  wonderful  efficacy  of  "  Vin  flariani "  was  first 

called    to    my  attention    by    the   celebrated    Doctor 

Chas.    Fauvel,   of   Paris.     I   bave   used   it   for  the 

past  seven   years   steadily   when  over   fatigued  or  otherwise  unfitted  to 

meet  my   engagements  as  a  singer.     I  have   never   found  it  to  fail.     I 

constantly   recommend  the  "  Vin    flariani  "  to  my  pupils  and  fellow 

artists. 

LiLUE  P.  Berg. 


The  late  Dr.  Elsberg  recommended  "  Vin  flariani  "  to  me  when  I 
had  been  suffering  with  hoarseness  from  a  severe  cold,  and  had  a  long 
New  England  tour  before  me.  I  found  it  to  act  like  magic  upon  my 
vocal  organs.  I  found  it  also  an  excellent  nervine.  I  consider  Mr. 
Mariani  a  benefactor  to  public  speakers  and  singers.

[TRANSLATION  OF  ABOVE.] 

In  1845  your  wine  was  unknown,  and  I  remained  but  three  years 
at  the  Odeon.  Then  your  wine  appeared,  my  dear  Mariani,  and  enabled 
me  to  remain  thirty-eight  years  at  the  Com^die  Francaise,  and  during 
all  that  time  I  have  played  continually    "  The  Young  Lover."

ONSIDERABLE  satisfaction  is  afforded  me  iu  giving  to  you 
the  results  of  my  personal  experience  in  the  use  of  "  Vin 
Hariani." 

For  the  past  three  years,  I  have,  under  the  direction  of 
my  physician,  relied  upon  it  iu  serious  emergencies  of  ill- 
ness and  overwork.  It  sustains  vitality  in  conditions  of 
extreme  exhaustion,  and  restores  strength  more  quickly  than  any 
other  tonic  I  have  used,  never  causing  the  least  unpleasant  reaction. 
I  have  tested  it  during  long  journeys,  under  the  pressure  of  continued 
physical  and  mental  strain,  and  have  found  it  unfailing  in  its  good 
effects.  Frequently,  when  in  traveling  I  have  been  unable  to  obtain 
my  regular  food,  a  small  quantity  of  "  Vin  flariani  "  has  afforded  me 
satisfactory  nourishment.  I  am  so  convinced  of  its  beneficial  nature 
that  I  have  induced  many  of  my  friends  to  use  it,  and  their  ex- 
perience coincides  with  mine.

I  have  found  "VINMARIANI"  a  pleasant,  stimulating  tonic;  in  cases 
of  vocal  fatigue  it  is  invaluable,  and  I  constantly  reconnmend  it  to  my  fellow-

lURING  a  long  run  of  "  Erminie,"  over  two  years,  playing 
one  of  the  thieves  in  the  same,  I  was  thoroughly  run  down. 
"  Vin  flariani "  was  recommended  to  me  as  a  tonic, 
etc.  I  can  assure  you  it  greatly  benefited  me,  and  I  feel  it  my  duty 
to  thank  you  and  wish  you  good  luck.

We  wish  to  pay  a  tribute  to  the  excellence  of  the  Mariani  Wine. 
We  invariably  use  it  during  our  professional  labors,  and  find  it  very

travel  without  it.

i/OME  years  ago,  I  was  going  through  a  severe  course  of  train- 
ing, and  it  was  necessary  for  me  to  take  a  mild,  stimulating 
and  invigorating  tonic.     My  physician  recommended  "  Vin 
riariani,"  and  I  never  remember  anything  that  did  me  so 
much  good.    I  never  undertake  to  train  without  taking  "  Vin  flariani  " 
regularly  three  times  a  day  in  the  doses  advised,  and  that  should  speak 
abundantly  for  my  confidence  in  the  merits  of  the  preparation.

"VIN  MARIANI "  has  been  the  most  wonderful  tonic  for  me  during 
my  three  years'  work  in  "Fedora;"  at  times  when  I  felt  completely  worn 
out  and  unable  to  exert  myself  after  a  matinee,  a  small  quantity  taken  has  so 
strengthened  me  and  carried  me  through  the  task  with  a  sort  of  superhuman 
power.      I   consider  "VIN  flARIANI"  the  most  wonderful   tonic  of  this  age. 

FANNY  DAVENPORT. 


HAVE  had  occasion  at  innumerable  times  to  test  the  surely 
astonishing,  beneficial  results  of  the  best  tonic  of  our  age 
— the  "Vin  flariani " — both  upon  myself  and  a  great 
number  of  pupils  and  friends.  There  is  probably  no  other 
professional  that  knows  better  the  dire  feeling  of  utter  exhaustion  of 
the  nerves  than  the  overworked  vocalist  and  vocal  teacher.  Yet  one 
small  glass  of  "Vin  flariani  "  will  work  like  a  magic  charm  imme- 
diately after  it  is  consumed,  and  fresh  vigor  will  run  like  a  reviving 
electric  fluid  through  the  whole  body.  It  affords  me  great  pleasure 
and  satisfaction  to  have  this  opportunit}'  of  expressing  my  gratitude  to 
you  for  this  great  invention.

V'     I^.OUR    "Vin    riariani"  is    a   tonic   which   certainly    strikes 
the  "  tonic  key  "  of  a  nervous  system,  and  is  just  the  thing 
for  artists  who  must  brave  the  footlights.     Since  trying  it, 
nervousness  does  not  trouble  me   as  heretofore  when  play- 
ing in  public. 

I  am  indebted   to   my  eminent  friend.  Dr.  Aug.  Caille,  for  recom- 
mending to  me  a  tonic  so  eflfective  and  agreeable. 

Carl  V.  Lachmund. 


Your    admirable    "  Vin    flariani "    has    carried   me    through   so 

many   trials  that  I  consider  it    the   best   of  tonics    and    an    invaluable 

restorative    after   a   tedious    rehearsal  or  matinee.     Do   you    wonder  'tis 

my  vade  mecuni  ?

Jules  (Slaf^biiiie:. 


"VIN  MARIANI"  is  so  invigorating  a  tonic  that  one  hesitates  in  giving 
an  opinion  in  order  to  fully  do  it  justice.  It  gives  to  the  body  and  brain 
renewed  vitality.  For  all,  especially  artists  and  brain  workers,  "VIN  MARIANI" 
is  the  supreme  remedy.  Shopenhauer,  whose  greatness  of  mind  is  not  disputed, 
would  certainly  have  been  even  more  brilliant,  and  certainly  less  bitter,  if  he 
had   had   in   his  Frankfort  abode  an  ample   supply  of   this  delicious  wine.

months,    sustained    him    with    Mariani    Coca   extract,   known  as  "The 

riariani." 

This  was  the  Coca  preparation  referred  to  in  the  many  reports  of 
the  case  in  the  medical  press  and  the  daily  papers.  It  was  owing  to 
this  medicament  that  the  General  was  enabled  each  day  to  spend

Through  Dr  Fauvel  in  Pans,  I  became  acquainted  with  "VIM  riARIANl," 
and  after  using  it  a  number  of  years,  consider  it  above  all  others  a  most 
efficacious  tonic  for  the  system,  particularly  valuable  to  vocalists,  as  it  re- 
lieves   hoarseness,  strengthens,  and  facilitates   marvelously  the  arduous   tasks  of 

our  profession.

Strange  to  say  that  "  Vin  riariani,"  so  exquisite  a  wine,  should 
also  be  a  medicament,  and  a  delicious  one  at  that,  so  pleasant  to  the 
taste  and  so  beneficial  to  the  entire  system.

preparations,  I  have    always    found   them    of  great  benefit, 
both    iu    strengthening    and    improving    the    voice,  and    in

I  am  delighted  to  add  a  word  of  commendation  to  the  many  you  have 
already  received  concerning  the  value  of  your  "  VIN  flARIANI."  I  have  used 
it  constantly  during  many  years,  and,  owing  to  its  low  percentage  of  alcohol 
and  the  purity  of  the  wine,  the  effect  has  been  most  happy.  Indeed,  I  am 
justified  in  saying  that,  owing  to  its  efficacy  as  a  tonic,  I  was  enabled,  through 
its  use  night  and  day,  to  sing  a  heavy  operatic  role,  for  several  weeks,  although 
a  very  sick  woman  at  the  time.  I  have  also  used  it  in  periods  of  nervous 
debility    and    irritation     with     very    beneficial    results.      "VIN  MARIANI"    has 

proved  an  excellent  friend  to  me.

It  is  perfect,  in  truth,  this  wine  of  Mariani,  which  gives  us  health 

and    drives    away   the    blues,    is  of    such    excellent   quality,    that   each 

time  we    take  it,  we  almost   wish  we  were  always  sick  and    debilitated 

as  a  pretext  to  drink   it.

since  many  j'ears,  and  found  it  the  only  reliable  tonic  and  preserva-

Your  wine  has  indeed    again  saved  me!     Upon   my  arrival    at   the  opera, 

just    before   the  commencement   when    I    was  to  sing,    I    found     I    had    got   a 

severe    attack    of    aphonia,    which    disappeared    as    if    by  enchantment   after  I 

had    taken    slowly    a    glassful    of    your   wonderful    "VIN  flARIANI."     It    is   to 

be    hoped    that    all    singers  will    become    aware    of   and    utilize    the    excellent 

properties  of  your  preparation.     I    have  tried  everything,  and   never  have  found

For   several    years  I   have   taken    your  "  VIN  MARIANI,"  and    when   I   say

due. 

MARIE  TEMPEST. 


What  the  Principal   Medical  Journals  in  the  United   States 
say  of  Mariani's  "Coca  Erythroxylon," 

Showing  the  esteem  in  which  it  is  held  by  the  medical  profession  and  the  general  apprecia- 
tion of  Mariani's  endeavors  to  popularize  this  valuable  drug. 


New  York  Hedical  Journal. 

"  M.  Mariani's  admirable  '  Treatise  on  Erythroxylon  Coca '  certainly  deserves  professional 
recognition.  While  not  entering  into  the  exhaustive  details  embodied  in  former  works,  it  substitutes 
therefor  that  which,  from  a  practical  standpoint,  is  far  more  valuable — i.  e.,  clinical  data  from  com- 
petent observers.  A  careful  selection  of  articles  relating  to  Coca  will  be  found  in  its  pages,  and  much 
that  is  instructive  and  interesting  can  be  gathered  from  its  perusal.  This  work  comes  at  an  oppor- 
tune time,  as  it  reconciles  many  conflicting  statements  and  opinions  regarding  the  efficacy  of  Coca. " 


Virginia  fledical  Monthly. 

"  This  neatly  issued  book  contains  a  great  deal  of  useful  information  about  the  therapeutics  of 
the  Coca  preparations.  The  '  Vin  Mariani,'  used  as  a  general  tonic,  has  gained  for  itself  universal 
esteem.  It  is  more  tonic  than  iron  or  quinine,  and  does  not  produce  constipation  ;  it  combines 
nicely  with  hypophosphites,  and  even  with  bromides,  when  such  a  combination  is  needed.  We  have 
used  '  Vin  Mariani '  in  practice,  and  have  found  it  to  equal  the  claims  made  for  it." 


Philadelphia  fledical  News. 
"  In  this  volume  M.  Mariani  has  gathered  the  testimony  of  a  large  number  of  the  profession  in 
various  parts  of  the  United  States  as  to  the  therapeutic  value  of  the  preparation  of  Coca  known 
as  '  Vin  Mariani."  One  of  the  secrets  of  the  admirable  character  of  this  tonic  is,  that  it  is 
made  with  a  pure,  fine  quality  of  grape  wine,  of  M.  Mariani's  own  production,  which  blends  admir- 
ably with  the  fresh  selected  Coca  leaves,  which  alone  are  used." 


Philadelphia  Hedical  Times. 

"In  this,  the  publisher  has  collected  the  indorsements  of  Mariani's  Coca  Wine  by  prominent 
physicians  in  this  country,  with  practical  notes  upon  the  uses  of  this  drug.  In  truth,  the  array  of 
notable  names  is  a  strong  one  ;  far  too  strong  in  standing,  as  well  as  in  numbers,  to  allow  of  the 
charge  of  interested  motives."

I  am  delighted  to  add  my  mite  to  the  many  indorsements  of  your 
"VIN  MARIANI."  When  I  say  I  know  of  no  substitute,  I  am  but  echoing 
the  verdict  of  thousands  of  "workers"  who  have  benefited   by  its  use. 


MADELEINE  LUCETTE. 


St.  Joseph  Medical  Herald. 

"A  complete  resume'  oi  all  the  knowledge  on  the  uses  of  Coca,  and  is  well  worth  reading.  It  is 
pubHshed  by  Messrs.  Manani  &  Co.,  who  manufacture  that  excellent  preparation,  '  Vin  Manani.' 
The  work  has  the  opinion  of  hundreds  of  the  leading  practitioners,  all  of  them  speaking  in  the 
highest  terms  of  •  Vin  Manani.'  " 


The  Medical  Bulletin. 

"  This  volume  contains  many  valuable  suggestions  as  to  the  use  of  Coca  from  the  pens  of  emi- 
nent authorities  in  this  country  and  abroad,  together  with  quite  a  ponderous  list  of  eminent  medical 
gsntlemea,  who  are  constantly  prescribing  the  Coca  preparations  of  Manani.  It  possesses  interest- 
ing therapeutic  hints." 


Daniel's  Texas  Medical  Journal. 

"  A  neat  volume  submitted  as  an  evidence  of  the  esteem  in  which  '  Vin  Mariani  Erythroxylon 
Coca '  is  held  by  the  medical  profession.  Prof.  Fauvel  is  quoted  as  saying  '  Vin  Mariani '  is  the  tonic 
par  excellence,  and  can  be  given  for  any  length  of  time  without  producing  constipation,  an  effect 
common  to  nearly  all  other  tonics." 


^^^ 


In  consideration  of  the  high  esteem  in  which  "  VIN  MARIANI  "  is  universally  held,  and  to 
record  the  success  attending  our  e.Torts  during  thirty  years  at  the  hands  of  the  Medical  Profession, 
we  have  pleasure  in  submitting  aforesaid  testimony  with  a  view  that  this  standard  preparation  may 
become  further  popularized. 

In  recognition  of  the  truly  meritorious  character  of  the  preparation,  and  the  demonstrated 
superiority,  we  hope  for  a  continuance  of  kind  support. 

Among  many  awards  to  Mr.  Mariani  for  the  high  standard  and  excellence  of  his  preparations 
of  Coca,  we  mention  ; 

Gold  Medal  and  Silver  Medal  from  the  Academie  Nationale  de  France. 
Gold  Medal  and  a  Grand  Diploma  of  Honor  fromths  Wine  Exhibit  of  Bordeaux,  France. 
Gold  Medal  and  a  Diploma  of  Honor  at  the  Hygienic  Exhibit  at  Amsterdam,  Holland,  and 
Gold  Medal  and  Diploma  at  Leamington,  England,  the  jury  surnaming  his  "  Vin  Manani," 
"  Wine  for  Athletes." 


iTALiO  (sAMPANINI. 


Many  years  ago  I  had  occasion  to  inform  you  of  the  high  esteem  in 
which    I    held    your    Coca    preparation. 

I  can  but  reiterate  my  appreciation  of  the  value  of  your  "VIN  MARIANI." 
In  cases  of  vocal  fatigue.  I  know  of  no  remedy  which  can  be  so  thoroughly 
relied  upon.  The  occasions  are  countless  where  the  wonderful  tonic  and 
stimulating  effects  of  "VIN  flARIANl"  permitted  me  to  give  with  ease 
"encores"  at  times  when,  I  feel  confident,  without  this  wine,  I  should  have 
been  reluctantly  compelled  to  refuse  to  accede  to  the  requests  of  my  audi- 
ences. 

The  fact  that  all    my    friends    and    fellow-artists    are    unanimous  in  their 

praise  of    "VIN   riARIANI"  as  a  voice    tonic    and    stimulant  to  the    system   is 

abundant   proof  of  its  truly  meritorious  character.

RIVAL  PREPARATIONS  OF  COCA 


New  York  Medical  Journal,  October  24,  1885. 

"In  another  column  we  publish  a  letter  from  Dr.  W.  Oliver  Moore,  calling  attention  to  an 
injustice  that  certain  competing  pharmacists  have  practiced  toward  Messrs.  Mariani  &  Co.,  in 
'  pirating '  published  records  of  the  successful  use  of  the  Mariani  preparations  of  Coca,  and  at  the 
same  time  craftily  making  these  records  appear  to  apply  to  their  own  preparations.  It  is  very 
much  to  be  regretted  that  a  house  that  has  been  so  punctilious  in  avoiding  even  the  semblance 
of  any  offense  against  the  courtesy  of  trade  should  have  been  treated  in  this  shabby  way  by 
some  rival  manufacturers." 

To  the  Editor  of  the  New  York  Medical  Journal : 

Sir:  In  your  issue  of  January  3,  1885,  page  ig,  in  a  report  of  a  paper  read  before  the  New 
York  Medical  Society,  on  "The  Physiological  and  Therapeutical  Effects  of  the  Coca  Leaf  and  its 
Alkaloid,"  occurs  the  following :  "  For  over  twenty  years  Dr.  Fauvel  has  used  it,  both  internally  in 
the  form  of  '  Vin  Mariani,'  and  also  by  local  applications  to  the  pharynx  and  larynx  in  spray  or  by 
brush,  in  the  form  of  a  fluid  extract,  or,  more  recently,  of  a  concentrated  non-alcoholic  preparation 
more  of  the  nature  of  a  cordial  (prepared  by  Mariani  &  Co.)." 

Several  manufacturers  of  Coca  preparations  have  taken  occasion  to  quote  from  this  paper,  each 
in  turn  substituting  the  name  of  his  own  production  instead  of  the  one  mentioned  in  the  original. 

As  the  preparations  of  Ccca  mentioned  in  my  paper  were  personally  tested  and  found  to  be 
the  best  of  a  large  number  experimented  with,  I  wish  to  call  attention  to  these  misquotations  and 

substitutions. 

Very  truly, 

W.  Oliver  Moore,  M.D. 


*,*  We  have  taken  the  trouble  to  compare  the  report  of  Dr.  Moore's  remarks  with  the  little 
book  on  Coca  prepared  by  M.  Mariani,  and  with  the  circulars  issued  by  a  number  of  manufacturers 
of  Coca  preparations ;  and  we  certainly  think  that  some  of  these  manufacturers  have  taken  an  un- 
warrantable liberty  in  appropriating  work  that  evidently  cost  M.  Mariani  a  good  deal  of  time  and 
no  little  outlay  of  money. — Editor.

"VIN   HARIANI." 


"  La  Grippe  and  its  Treatment,"  by  Cyrus  Edson,  M.D.,  Health  Department,  City  of  N.  Y. 

D.  Apple  ton  &•  Co.,  Publishers,  New  Yori. 

"  In  the  great  depression  caused  by  the  disease  and  in  the  convalescence,  special  attention  is 
called  to  the  value  of  '  Vin  Mariani.' " 


"Brain  Exhaustion,"  by  J.  Leonard  Corning,  M.D. 

D.  Appleton  &»  Co. 

"  Of  all  remedies  with  which  I  am  acquainted,  the  extract  of  Coca  is  the  best  for  dealing  with 
this  condition  of  irritability — not  excepting  the  bromides. 

"  It  has  the  soothing  effects  of  the  latter  remedies,  but  without  their  characteristic  depressing 
influence.  The  preparation  of  Coca,  known  as  '  Vin  Mariani,"  is  the  best  in  the  market.  It 
possesses  the  decided  advantage  of  being  manufactured  from  the  fresh  leaves,  which  is  an  indispen- 
sable requisite." 

The  author  continues  on  page  212,  praising  "  Vin  Mariani"  over  other  remedies,  showing  its 
great  superiority,  and  says  : 

"  It  is  a  remedy,  par  excellence,  against  worry.  Besides  exercising  an  invigorating  effect  upon 
the  cerebral  centers,  it  imparts  an  indescribable  sensation  of  satisfaction." 


••  Headaclie,"  by  J.  F.  Baldwin,  M.D. 

Columbus  Medical  Journal 

"  We  used  the  justly  celebrated  '  Vin  Mariani '  personally  for  the  relief  of  headache — which  is 
the  bane  of  our  life.  This  wine  has  for  its  active  ingredient  a  concentrated  extract  of  the  leaves  of 
Erythroxylon  Coca — the  plant  from  which  the  anaesthetic  is  obtained.  Although  we  have  used  the 
'Vin'  only  when  we  felt  the  attack  coming  on,  it  has  uniformly  aborted  the  attack  promptly  and 
thoroughly.  We  have  used  it  with  patients  and  with  essentially  the  same  success.  We  have  also 
prescribed  it  as  a  tonic  in  dyspepsia  and  nervous  prostration,  and  with  excellent  results." 


"Brain  Rest,"  by  J.  Leonard  Corning,  M.D. 

G.  P.  Putnam^ s  Sons. 

"  In  cases  of  functional  brain  trouble,  complicated  by  inordinate  irritability  and  worry,  I  wa-; 
formerly  in  the  habit  of  giving  bromides  in  moderate  doses  during  the  hours  of  wakefulness,  wiih  a 
view  to  bringing  the  brain  into  a  condition  of  sufficient  tranquillity  toward  evening  to  render  super- 
vention of  sleep  possible. 

"  Since  the  introduction  of  the  Coca  preparations,  however,  I  have  almost  entirely  abandoned 
the  use  of  the  bromides.  But  when  I  do  have  occasion  to  resort  to  them,  I  am  in  the  habit  of  giving 
Coca  as  well,  with  a  view  to  counteracting  the  depression  which  is  such  a  disagreeable  collateral 
effect  of  these  salts. 

"  The  preparation  of  Coca  known  as  '  Vin  Mariani'  is  the  one  to  which  I  resort  in  meeting  the 
exigencies  incident  to  excessive  and  habitual  worry. 

"  Of  '  Vin  Mariani '  I  need  hardly  speak,  as  the  profession  is  already  well  aware  of  its  virtues. 
Of  all  tonic  preparations  ever  introduced  to  the  notice  of  the  profession,  this  is  undoubtedly  the  most 
potent  for  good  in  the  treatment  of  exhaustive  and  irritative  conditions  of  the  central  nervous  system. 

"  Mr.  Angelo  Mariani  has  spent  many  years  in  the  careful  study  of  the  Coca  plant,  and  a3  a 
result  his  preparations  are  unrivaled.  The  profession  certainly  owes  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  this  gen- 
tleman for  his  valuable  labors  in  this  direction." 


••  Heart  Strain  and  Weak  Heart,"  by  Beverly  Robinson,  M.D. 

Aew  York  Medical  Record. 

"  Among  well-known  cardiac  tonics  and  stimulants,  I  know  of  no  drug  quite  equal  to  Coca.  It 
does  much  at  times  to  restore  the  heart  muscle  to  its  former  tone.  I  have  obtained  the  best  effects 
from  the  use  of  '  Vin  Mariani.' 

'•  In  '  Vin  Mariani '  we  have  a  powerful  stimulant  to  the  economy  that  frequently  will  strengthen 
or  g^ve  tone  to  the  nerves  in  a  rapid  manner,  that  no  other  drug  with  which  I  am  familiar  can 
accomplish. 

"  I  have  repeatedly  felt  this  effect  on  myself  when  extremely  fatigued  from  overwork  or  want 
of  sleep.  '  Vin  Mariani'  is,  I  believe,  the  best  preparation,  on  account  of  the  great  care  exercised 
by  its  maker. " 


"Coca  Erythroxylon,  as  a  Cardiac  Tonic,"  by  Henry  Conkling,  M.D. 

Brooklyn  Medical  Journal. 

"  Coca  Erythroxylon  given  under  the  form  of  '  Vin  Mariani '  has  been  most  successfully  em- 
ployed, and  has,  in  our  experience,  proved  most  beneficial  in  restoring  and  saving  muscular  force.'' 


"St.  Louis  Alienist  and  Neurologist,"  Editor,  C.  H.  Hughes,  M.D. 

"I  take  pleasure  in  attesting  my  appreciation  of  'Vin  Mariani.'  I  prescribe  it  by  preference 
over  all  others  in  my  practice,  because  I  think  it  is  of  better  quality  than  the  domestic  Coca  Wines, 
and  I  am  glad  that  I  can  use  and  commend  it." 


••Coca  in  Hoarseness  of  Professional  Singers,"  by  Chas.  E.  Sajois,  M.D. 

The  Journal  of  tite  American  Medical  Association. 

'  The  fact  that  many  of  the  Coca  wines  on  the  market  are  but  solutions  of  cocaine  in  either 
shsrry  or  part  wine,  renders  it  quite  possible  that  anaesthesia  of  the  posterior  portion  of  the  larynx 
might  be  caused  by  contact  with  the  drug  during  the  act  of  deglutition,  and  thereby  interfere  -with 
the  functions  of  the  vocal  organs.  I  noticed  this  effect— a  stiffness  in  the  throat— while  trying  a 
number  of  brands  to  ascertain  which  would  best  serve  my  purpose.  The  preparation  which  I  pre- 
scribe ('  Vin  Mariani '),  made  from  the  leaves,  does  not  produce  this  effect,  owing  to  the  infinitesi- 
mal quantity  of  cocaine  that  it  contains — all  anaesthetic  action  being  furthermore  antagonized  by 
the  tannic  acid  present  not  only  in  the  leaves  themselves,  but  in  the  exceptionally  pure  wine  forming 
the  excipient.  A  great  advantage  of  '  Vin  Mariani '  is  that  it  exerts  its  action  without  giving  rise  to 
constipation.  It  can  for  that  reason  be  administered  continuously,  with  much  benefit  at  times,  in 
cases  in  which  muscular  weakness  causes  tremulousness  of  the  voice."

"  The  Physiological  and  Thsrapsutical  Effects  of  the  Coca  Leaf  and  its  Alkaloid,"  by  Dr. 
William  Oliver  Moore. 

The  entire  article  appeared  in  the  New  York  Medical  Journal ;  also  in  the  Quarterly  Bulle- 
tin of  th3  Clinical  Society  of  the  New  York  Post-Graduate  School  and  Hospital. 

"  Coca  is  a  tonic  of  great  value  in  all  asthenic  conditions  ;  it  is  also  an  anti-spasmodic  ;  and, 
next  to  alcohol,  a  food-replacing  agent  of  immense  value.  The  '  Vin  Mariani '  has  the  most  potent 
influence,  and  I  have  reason  to  believe  that  its  effect  is  better  than  that  of  other  preparations." 


••New  Remedies,"  by  Henry  Schweic,  M.D. 

A'ew  York  Medical  Monthly. 

The  only  preparations  of  Coca  which  have  given  me  uniformly  good  results  are  those  of  Mons. 
Mariani,  of  Paris.  My  attention  was  first  called  to  '  Vin  Mariani '  as  applied  to  laryngeal  diseases 
by  the  late  Dr.  Louis  Elsberg,  as  well  as  by  the  writings  of  Charles  Fauvel  and  Morell  Mackenzie. " 


••  Influenza  and  its  Complications,"  by  J.  H.  Cowell,  M.D.

"Many  patients  recover  very  slowly.  The  lassitude  and  weakness  calls  for  something  in  the 
nature  of  a  tonic,  and  for  this  purpose  I  am  satisfied  that  I  have  found  a  preparation  that  answers 
the  purpose.    I  refer  to  the  '  Vin  Mariani.'  " 


"Causticum  in  Laryngeal  Affections,"  by  W.  W.  Van  Baum,  M.D. 

Philadelphia  Hahnemannian  Monthly. 

"  In  these  cases  of  long-standing  laryngeal  affections,  the  virtues  of  Erythroxylon  Coca  have 
long  been  recognized  ;  it  will  unquestionably  benefit  and  will  materially  assist  the  action  of  the 
remedies.  I  rely  on  the  brand  of  '  Mariani,'  which  was  used  in  the  cases  reported.  This  tonic  Coca 
wine  of  Mariani  is  pleasant. 

"  '  Vin  Mariani '  is  quite  palatable  to  the  patient.  I  direct  school  teachers,  annoyed  with  fre- 
quent attacks  of  hoarseness,  to  take  a  wineglassful  of  this  Coca  wine  immediately  before  each  school 
session.     My  experience  has  been  gratifying."

attention  to  the  product  itself,  and  ask  a  careful  test  of  same  on  its  own  merits,  there- 
by proving  its  true  usefulness  and  well-deserved  reputation  as  the  standard  preparation 
of  Erythroxylon  Coca.
